Carambola Beach Resort Activities and Recreation

Activities and Recreation at Carambola

An elaborate menu of recreational amenities isn't necessarily required for a great vacation. While some would prefer a hotel offering numerous recreational activities, others are perfectly happy with very limited active recreational options, because all they really care about is having a comfortable, relaxing place to stay. Although the hotel doesn't provide an extensive array of recreational offerings the Carambola Beach Resort may have everything you need.

Water and Fitness

While each vacationer has their own agenda, you'll find many different activities and attractions in the Virgin Islands. A visit to the hotel's pool probably isn't your number one priority but it could be a good way to spend part of the day.

Tennis

This hotel is a particularly good choice for tennis enthusiasts. You probably won't wait long for a court, because the hotel has 177 rooms and it has 4 courts. That equates to an average of roughly 106.2 guests per court, which is favorable compared to other hotels in the area. Evening matches are a possibility, since you have the option of using a lit court. This is perfect for travelers who want to spend the daylight hours exploring, or lounging on the beach.

If you are looking for some other choices that are good for tennis, investigate Westin Resort, St. John and Club St. Croix Beach & Tennis Resort. These hotels feature some of the greatest spots for tennis, so you may want to weigh those options against this hotel before making a final choice.
